Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: adept
>From time to time, a red warning sign shows up in the icon list on my
panel, telling me that new packages are ready for upgrade. The process
of actually upgrading them is far to complicated.
How it SHOULD be:
1) The red warning sign icon shows up in the panel.
2) By hovering the Icon, the message should show "There are X packages to be
upgraded" as now together with
a) the list of packages to be upgraded if there are only a very few
(this is typically the case)
b) a button named "Upgrade now"
3) By clicking "Upgrade now" the upgrade is performed in the background
without the need for any user intervention.
This requires 2 clicks and not much consideration from the user.
How it is now:
1) The red warning sign icon shows up.
2) The user clicks on the icon
3) The user clicks "Skip fetching list" (it has just been fetched - else the
red warning icon wouldn't have appeared)
4) The user clicks "Apply upgrades"
5) The user clicks "Quit" when finished
This requires 4 clicks and forces the user to consider things that
basically doesn't matter. Moreover it takes time if it needs to be done
often. This is annoying.
